The Australian cricket team has looked like a mere shadow of its past. The World Champions have been thrashed by India in the first three ODIs and will now take the field at the bowler’s graveyard, M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru on Thursday afternoon to save some pride. Since winning the 2015 ODI World Cup in their own backyard, Australia have lost 20 of their last 48 matches. India on the other hand, is in a fine form, winning 9 of their last ODIs. The good part is that Australia have not given up. Vice-captain David Warner while addressing a press conference ahead of the 4th ODI said that there is a lot of pride at stake. Bengaluru is known for leaking runs and would be set to welcome son, Virat Kohli. India might bring back the local boy KL Rahul in place of Kedar Jadhav or Manish Pandey. As far Australia is considered, they need runs from their captain Steve Smith.
Playing Conditions: Once again, showers and thunderstorms are expected. The match might be affected by the rain, bringing Chinnaswamy’s SubAir subsurface aeration and vacuum-powered drainage system could come into play.
